My Wish For Daniel

My wish for Daniel is that he
will find forgiveness in his 
heart so his time in pain ends.

My wish for Daniel is that one
day he finds comfort in God’s Word
and in the belief that he is not alone.

My wish for Daniel is that God’s
Angels keeps him safe in all that
he does and everywhere he goes.

My wish for Daniel is that he finds that
he is worthy, good, gentle, intelligent,
with a most beautiful soul.

My wish for Daniel is to create music
because when it comes from his sweet 
heart he sings and plays like an angel.

My wish for Daniel is to delve further
into the arts, as he writes, draws, sings,
and plays instruments so beautifully. 

My wish for Daniel is that he finds
a sincere, unconditional, genuine, 
forever love in his life.

My wish for Daniel is that he 
recognizes that he is a perfect
in God’s eyes always and forever.

My wish for Daniel is that he prays to
God whenever he feels lost or anxious
so that his thoughts remain peaceful.

My wish for Daniel is to keep his head
lifted up to the heavens so he clearly
sees God is watching over him.

My wish for Daniel is that he finds joy, 
and a reason to smile everyday while 
never giving up on his dreams.

My most significant wish for Daniel is that
he forgives my damaged character, but is
consoled by my trying to make amends.

My wish for Daniel is to know when I’m
no longer here I will continue to plead with
God that he only feels only peace and love.

Remember, Daniel you’re a precious miracle
from God and you will always be loved!

Love Mom

Paul Bell March 1, 2024 at 9:38 AM Sometimes you can only do your best. We prepare them the best we can for the big world, and we hope they succeed in all they do. I think everyone finds their place in this world at some point, and I suppose that what makes the world go round.

Beata Agustin January 3, 2024 at 8:57 PM Thanks for sharing this. God bless you. Meanwhile, I greet you with a Joyous New Year with this prayer from the Bible in Numbers 6:24-26, "The Lord bless thee, and keep thee: The Lord make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace."

Daniel Henry Rodgers December 27, 2023 at 7:15 AM Good Morning, Diane, I was just perusing various poems, and I came across this one because it has my first name. This could have been a prayer from my mom for me. The great news is that I found God and now my children and grandchildren have found God also. Thanks for sharing your heart for your son! - Blessings, Daniel

Victor Buhagiar September 21, 2023 at 7:31 AM A mother's love never stops caring. She recognizes his good points but she would wish to see him improve. That is as it should be. Loved your poem.
